Alyas Batman en Robin (lit. 'Alias Batman and Robin') is a 1991 Filipino

Joker, Dawn Zulueta as Angelique Legarda, Vina Morales as Vina, de Leon's son Keempee as Robin, and Panchito as the Penguin. Several songs in the film use melodies taken from other pop songs such as "At the Hop", Bird Dog and "Surfin' Safari".[3]

Originally produced by Viva Films, the film was delayed from its original release in early 1989 when Warner Bros. objected to the use of their characters' names and costumes. The film was eventually produced and released on April 6, 1991, albeit by Viva Film's rival studio, Regal Films.

Production

The film was initially an unauthorized production from

A sequel was planned, launching Thursday group member and popular matinee teen idol and heartthrob Hector Chua. However, those plans did not materialize.

Parodies

The "R" on the Robin costume was intentionally stylized to resemble the logo of its eventual producer,

Regal Films, a rival to the film's original production company Viva Films

portmanteau of the names "Tiyo Paeng" and "Penguin". The name is also a double entendre of the Spanish term for fellatio
.

Joey de Leon imitates the mannerisms of Fernando Poe Jr. in some scenes of the film. Poe had earlier produced a similar spoof film of Batman in 1965.
